Dig Into University Researchers' Outside Income and Conflicts of Interest
Published Dec. 6, 2019
This database was last updated in December 2019 and should only be used as a historical snapshot. There may be new or amended records not reflected here.
Conflict of Interest
Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

EnDepth Vision System, LLC
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
Dr. Chen's research focuses on molecular imaging techniques. He holds several licenses for techniques he has pioneered. As the co-PI on this study, looking at radiation response in tumors, the University determined that this research could be related to the mission of EnDepth Vision Systems, LLC, in which Dr. Chen is a founder and equal partner.
Radiation response within the tumor microenvironment
Narrative Radiation therapy is a widely used treatment for cancer, but cures a minority of patients. One hypothesis is that inadequate blood flow in tumors protects some cells from radiation. This project will use advanced imaging methods to examine how radiation affects cancer cells in experimental tumors, and how this relates to blood flow. We will then apply systems biology approaches to begin to model how cancer cells survive radiation and how we might achieve better results.

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.
Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.
ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
